Summary

"I came here to help you see that you’re making a poor decision and I-.”

“No!” Jughead snaps, standing up suddenly. “You don’t get to do that. You don’t get to leave and then show up again like nothing happened; you lost your right to make decisions for me the moment you drove out of this stupid town. You left me. How could you just leave me here?"

OR

Anon asked: Can you make a fic where Jughead sees his mom again, except she's only there to try to talk him out of an relationship with Archie?

Summary

This is the CANON DIVERGENT continuation of for the life of me, which I very strongly recommend reading first. If you choose not to, I think this story will still be comprehensible--but the first part is the first part, so you should read it first, you know?

Summary

Betty’s head snaps over toward the boy, his lanky form leaning over his patio with the cigarette hanging from his fingers. Her stomach turns strangely at the way the moonlight highlights his features, accentuating his cheekbones and the inky black hair that falls over his eyes in soft curls.

He raises a brow at her and takes a deep drag of his cig before continuing. “Welcome to Riverdale.”

Summary

Our story is about a town, a small town, and the people who live in the town. From a distance, it presents itself like so many other small towns all over the world; safe, decent, innocent. Get closer, though, and you start seeing the shadows underneath. The name of our town is Riverdale. ~Jughead Jones, Chapter One: The River's Edge

Welcome to the Town with Pep. This is the America's Sweetheart Dream kind of town, that has it's own 70's -style diner, and a drive-in. Where families live, love, laugh. Friends are loyal, and children are happy.

But in this story, families separate, children die, and friends betray.

Summary

It’s that road trip they never went on - him and Fred, Jughead and Archie, doesn’t matter. By seven am they’re crammed into the vehicle - the shaggin’ wagon 2.0, if you will - and Jughead and Archie have split open the pack of red licorice that was supposed to be for after lunch.

Summary

Summary

"Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous." - Albert Einstein

Is there such a thing as a coincidence? Or do we create our own reality because of the choices we make and the people that we let into our lives? Regardless of what you believe, sometimes you just need to be open to what the universe is throwing your way.

This is a non-canon AU work based on Jughead and Betty during their college years. They have no prior relationship before meeting in Rome, Italy.

This is a story primarily about Bughead, with a bit of Varchie as it helps advance the plot. Other characters from Riverdale featured as needed.

Summary

Three years ago, Jughead Jones vanished.He had been an ever-present force of happiness and friendship in Betty’s life. He meant a constant flow of greasy burgers and sickeningly sweet milkshakes, of dry humour and playful teasing, of too much imagination and too little time, of endless mischief and adventures, of mutual support and unconditional love…And then he was gone.Worse still, she had no idea why.

Summary

Jughead knew Betty Cooper existed. It was Riverdale, everybody knew everybody in the tiny town. Yeah, he knew who she was, but he’d never paid attention to her before. She had the body of a blond bombshell, but a sweet demeanor that didn’t fit the title. She participated in scores of clubs and committees. When they listed student rank she was always number one. She was also dating his ex-friend, Archie Andrews. All of this information he knew without even thinking about it. It was just KNOWN the ways things are in small towns.

But there must've been something he was missing.Why would Jellybean pick this girl as her favorite babysitter? What made her different from the hordes of vapid sheep? Kind smiles and sweater sets?
